Just give a quick/smart reply from the bubble and close it by dragging to bottom of the screen. You can also share contact or photo during a call.

There is no need to pull out the notification panel in order to go into the app. Even from the bubble, you can back to the call into full-screen, mute the call, put it into speaker mode, and end the call directly.
